Jason, welcome to the forum. Let me just say,
EVERYBODY needs a .30-06, no matter what other guns you have. Ya just do.
Not only that... But don't forget the legendary, and timeless classic 30-30 winchester. Be it either Marlin or Winchester it doesn't matter. The 30-30 is the most fun to shoot, most bang for the buck, most easiest to carry and comfortable to shoot, rifle around. Pick one up, and you'll just fall in love with it from that moment on.
